Conference

BIG 12

The Big 12 enters its 22nd year in 2017-18 as it continues to promote the strength and success of one of the nation’s premier athletic conferences under the direction of sixth-year commissioner Bob Bowlsby.

TCU and West Virginia joined the league on July 1, 2012 and became the Big 12’s first additions since inception, joining Baylor, Iowa State, Kansas, Kansas State, Oklahoma, Oklahoma State, Texas and Texas Tech.

With 10 members, the Big 12 remains as the only autonomy conference to determine its champions in all sports directly on the field of play with a full round-robin schedule. The Conference’s hard work ethic and strong values have translated to enormous success in its first 21 years. Since it began competition in 1996-97, the league can boast of 58 NCAA team titles and 645 individual national championships.

The Big 12 has been at the forefront in college athletics reform, specifically with student-athlete welfare issues to include cost of attendance, student-athlete time demands and strengthening its policy for concussion diagnosis and management. In 2014-15, the Big 12 introduced and hosted three “State of Collegiate Athletics” forums to examine the issues facing college athletics. Two were conducted in Washington, D.C and one in New York City. Panelists included respected authorities from intercollegiate athletics, university leadership and sports

journalism. The third forum featured a special session comprised of student-athletes. The Big 12 continued the “State of Collegiate Athletics” forums the past three seasons with Dallas serving as the host site for two events and the most recent in Atlanta.

The Big 12 claimed four national championships in 2016-17 as Oklahoma brought home trophies in women’s gymnastics, men’s golf and softball, while Texas won men’s swimming & diving. West Virginia played for the national championship in soccer while Texas advanced to the volleyball title match for the second-consecutive season. TCU baseball made its fourth-consecutive appearance in the College World Series. Oklahoma football won its 10th Big 12 title to advance to the Sugar Bowl. It marked the Conference’s fifth appearance in a College Football Playoff New Year’s Bowl in the three years of the structure. The Sooners also had two Heisman Trophy finalists, giving the Conference 18 since 1996, and two finalists for the fifth time. Texas’ Courtney Okolo won the Bowerman Award, which is track & field’s equivalent to the Heisman.

The Big 12 lays claim to five Heisman Trophy winners since 1996 and has had a finalist in 13 of its seasons. Twenty-seven major individual awards have been won by Big 12 student-athletes in football over the past eight campaigns. Overall, more than 4,800 student-athletes have earned AllAmerica recognition. West Virginia soccer standout Kadeisha Buchanan

earned the Hyundai Young Player Award at the 2015 World Cup while playing for her native Canada, given to the player born in 1995 or later that made the biggest impression in the competition. She followed that up by being named the 2016 Honda Sport Award winner for soccer.

Through its first 21 years, the Big 12 has claimed a team national championship in 17 of the sports it sponsors. The Conference finished the BCS era ranked tied for second with seven appearances in the National Championship Game. The league has finished in the top two of women’s basketball conference RPI in nine of the last 11 years and sent at least 70 percent of its teams to postseason for the eighth-straight season. In men’s basketball, the league has had at least six 20-wins teams for 11 consecutive seasons, including each of the five years since it began competing with 10 squads. The Big 12 has had 27 teams earn NCAA bids over the past four campaigns, a total that ranks second nationally.

The Big 12 and its member institutions are committed to a competitive environment where sportsmanship and fair play take center stage. Whether on the field, in the classroom, or within the community, the student-athletes, administrators, coaches and game officials of the Big 12 support the highest ideals in sportsmanship.

Nation academic accolades have always been strong in the Big 12. Ty Darlington (Oklahoma) was the recipient of the 2015 William V. Campbell Trophy, known as the Academic Heisman. Gabe Ikard (Oklahoma) was presented the NCAA Today’s Top 10 Award in January 2015. It recognizes former student-athletes for their successes on the fields and courts, in the classroom and in the community. Since 1996, the Big 12 has a total of 11 honorees for this prestigious award. In the last six seasons, 11 studentathletes were recipients of the NCAA Elite 90 Award with Oklahoma State’s Christian Liddell (men’s cross country) and Baylor’s Jimmy Bendeck (men’s tennis) picking up the most recent honors in 2016-17. The accolade showcases individuals who have reached the pinnacle of competition at the national championship level, while also achieving the highest academic standard among their peers.

In its short history, the Big 12 has over 600 Academic All-America recipients, averaging about 30 each season. Big 12 student-athletes have shown commitment to their studies by earning numerous individual academic recognitions. Twelve times in the past 12 years a league athlete has garnered the top academic honor for their respective sport, including Christina Hillman (Iowa State) for track & field/cross country in 2016.

Facilities WVU

Stunning in its spacious yet simplistic structure and versatile in its myriad uses, the WVU Coliseum is one of the nation’s supreme showcases for college basketball, gymnastics, volleyball and wrestling.

Whether it is during the day, when the sun shines down on the massive structure, or at night, when its golden lights make it an evening showcase, the Coliseum stands as one of the most striking facilities on the WVU campus.

Construction started on the Coliseum in 2016 as part of a $23 million renovation project, marking the most extensive renovations since the arena opened in 1970. Changes to the main concourse included the addition of several concession area, updated graphics and colors and added signage.

New Daktronic LED boards were added to the lower bowl, while television monitors were added throughout the concourse. The total number of restrooms was increased and the Mountaineer Ticket Office was relocated to the Gold Gate, among other projects completed.

Several prior upgrades had taken place in order to be competitive in the Big 12 Conference.

Items such as expansion of the strength and conditioning center, equipment room and training room, and refurbishment of the Coliseum roof were completed.

In 2008, new, state-of-the-art score/video boards, complete with high resolution video and expanded messaging capabilities, became part of the fan experience at the Coliseum. Panasonic, together with WVU, used the new video board systems as a showcase to feature the latest state-of-the-art video and audio technology.

A new state-of-the-art directional sound system and lighting system was also installed in the Coliseum.

The 14,000-seat domed arena has been the home of Mountaineer athletics for the past quarter of a century, but its many uses include commencement, concerts, conferences, floor shows and a host of educational and athletic events.

The Coliseum ranks second only to the Mountainlair (WVU’s student union building) in everyday activity.

Conditioning

STRENGHT &

The primary goal of the WVU strength and conditioning program is to provide each student-athlete with the best hands-on strength and conditioning program, with the best strength coaches and training facilities in the country. Our training philosophy is founded on two major principles: health and safety of the studentathlete, and performance enhancement.

The entire year is carefully planned to prepare for optimal performance during the season and peaking at post-season championships. Mountaineer volleyball players train for explosive power, jump endurance, anaerobic capacity, maximum strength, speed and agility.

The strength & conditioning coaches facilitate a training environment that enables each athlete to reach her full athletic potential. Our strength and conditioning program develops character, mental toughness, confidence, leadership, accountability, and relentless work ethic.

Athletes are also educated in proper recovery strategies, including proper nutrition, hydration, rest and regeneration methods. We also have a registered dietician on staff to provide nutritional guidance and education to help each athlete perform at her peak

The strength and conditioning coaches collaborate with our sport coaches and athletic training staff to prepare every athlete for optimum performance in competition and to have the ability to withstand the rigorous training demands throughout the season.

HEAD COACH – THIRD SEASON

REED

Sunahara UCLA, 1989

Reed Sunahara enters his third season at the helm of the Mountaineers after being named the fourth head coach in West Virginia University volleyball program history in March of 2015.

Several of Sunahara’s eight newcomers made immediate impacts on the program in 2016, as WVU more than doubled its 2015 win total by posting 12 victories in Sunahara’s second season.

On Sept. 27, 2016, Sunahara notched his first Big 12 win with a 3-0 sweep of Texas Tech in Lubbock, Texas. The Mountaineers added a win over TCU a week later and finished the season with three league triumphs while dropping a heartbreaker to No. 4 Kansas in five sets to end their home slate in November.

Outsider hitter Payton Caffrey ranked among the league’s best in kills, points and services aces, earning the Big 12’s Rookie of the Week accolade on five occasions. Under Sunahara’s guidance, Caffrey earned the AVCA Midwest Region Rookie of the Year award in addition to spots on the Big 12 All-Conference First Team, Big 12 All-Freshman Team and AVCA AllMidwest Region Team.

Outside hitter Morgan Montgomery and libero Gianna Gotterba flourished under Sunahara’s tutelage. After posting 38 kills in her freshman season in 2014, Montgomery went on to lead WVU in kills per set, including a career-best 31 in the win over Marshall. Her 3.74 kills per set and 4.14 points per set ranked third in the Big 12. Gotterba developed into a solid defensive leader on the floor, ranking sixth in the league with 3.56 digs per set.

Prior to joining the Big East, Cincinnati won the 2001 and 2003 C-USA Championships, qualifying for the NCAA Tournament both seasons and advancing to the NCAA Second Round in 2001. He departed as the winningest coach in UC history.

Sunahara spent two seasons as an assistant coach with the Bearcats, helping them to a C-USA Tournament Championship in 1999. He served as the head coach for the University of Toledo from 1995-96 after serving as an assistant coach for the Rockets from 1993-94. Sunahara got his start in coaching as an assistant with the men’s team at UCLA, his alma mater, from 1990-93 after serving as a graduate assistant in 1987 and 1989. He helped the Bruins to national championships in 1987, 1989 and 1993.

A voter in the AVCA Top-25 poll from 2002 to 2011, Sunahara was the C-USA Volleyball President from 2002 to 2003 and was the Big East Volleyball President from 2006 to 2007.

ASSISTANT COACH – SECOND SEASON

Coronel

JOJIT

UC-SANTA CRUZ, 1995

Jojit Coronel enters his second season with the Mountaineers in 2017. He arrived in Morgantown in 2016 after six years at Big 12 foe Texas Tech Coronel helped guide the Mountaineers to a marked improvement in his first season at the WVU Coliseum, as the squad more than doubled its 2015 win total with 12 wins in 2016. The Mountaineers twice defeated Coronel’s former team, Texas Tech, in league action as coach Reed Sunahara picked up his first-ever Big 12 win. Libero Gianna Gotterba notched her 1,000th career dig in the midst of her junior season under Coronel’s tutelage.

In addition, Coronel oversees West Virginia’s volleyball camps and clinics.

Prior to joining the Mountaineers, Coronel served as the interim head coach for the Red Raiders, after serving as the associate head coach from 2013-15. He joined the TTU staff in 2011 as an assistant coach.

Coronel worked primarily with the middle hitters and setters, and also was responsible for defensive

schemes. He also served as Tech’s primary scout, producing scouting reports and tracking both team and individual statistics. The Red Raiders made great strides during his tenure in Lubbock, as libero Rachel Brummitt broke TTU’s all-time digs mark and earned both Big 12 and AVCA honors under Coronel’s tutelage. In addition, Coronel assisted with Tech’s recruiting efforts and was the co-director of volleyball summer camps.

Prior to his time at Texas Tech, Coronel spent 11 seasons as the head coach at George Washington University in Washington, D.C. Compiling a 176153 mark at GWU, Coronel led the Colonials to six trips to the Atlantic-10 Championships. He guided the squad to the NCAA tournament in his first season at the helm, winning both A-10 and AVCA Division I Northeast Region Coach of the Year honors in 2000 before posting three 20-win seasons in D.C. Prior to his promotion, he served as an assistant coach during the 1999 season at George Washington.

WVUVolleyball

Like Sunahara, Coronel got his start in the men’s game. He was an assistant coach at Pacific in Stockton, California, from 1995-99, and was the head coach at the University of California at Santa Cruz from 1993-95.

Coronel has strong ties to USA Volleyball, serving as the head coach for the Girls’ High Performance Teams in both the Sun County and Chesapeake regions as well as several positions with the men’s World University Games teams. He also has been a member of the NCAA Northeast Regional and AllAmerican Committees.

A native of Los Angeles, Coronel was a standout setter and defensive specialist at UC-Santa Cruz. He led the Banana Slugs to a pair Pacific Coast Volleyball Association titles and a 74-42 record before graduating with a degree in political science in 1995.

Coronel is joined in Morgantown by his wife, Kimberly, and sons, Ethan and Drew.

Outlook

2017 SEASON After a season of improvement last year, West Virginia was tabbed to finish sixth in the Big 12 preseason poll released earlier this month, ahead of Oklahoma, Texas Tech and TCU. Perennial national contender Texas was picked to win the league, while Kansas finished a close second in the rankings.

year. Most recently, she was named to the All-Big 12 Preseason Team. Senior Morgan Montgomery, the team’s top hitter in 2015, provides a steady veteran presence while sophomore Katelyn Evans returns after finishing third on the team with just under two kills per set.

“We’re getting better and it’s great that other people see that and think highly of us,” third-year coach Reed Sunahara said. “But, we still have a lot to prove and we still have a lot of volleyball to play. We need to prove that we’re getting better and gain respect from other coaches and other teams. It’s great, but at the end of the day it’s just preseason rankings. It’s how you finish.”

“Mo is very versatile,” Sunahara said. “She can play left or right at any point when we need her in there, she’ll be in there.”

HITTERS Freshman phenom Payton Caffrey returns for her sophomore campaign after ranking near the top of the Big 12 in points, kills and aces. The 2016 AVCA Midwest Region Freshman of the Year, Caffrey set a freshman program record for kills and went on to earn All-Big 12 First Team, Big 12 All-Freshman Team and AVCA All-Midwest Region Team accolades last

Newcomer Katie DeMeo out of Troy High in Troy, Ohio, will bolster the veteran core along with Briana Lunch, who comes from Johns Creek, Georgia, and Chattahoochee High.

“The newcomers add more depth,” Sunahara added. “Briana is a true middle, and Chloe and Katie are versatile players that can hit from the middle and right. Katie can hit from the left as well. We’re looking forward to being a lot more versatile from an offensive standpoint.”

Blockers Senior Mia Swanegan led the league in blocking with 1.34 blocks per set in 2016, ending the season with a total of 149 to

lead the Mountaineers. Sophomore Natania Levak also contributed to the blocking effort as a freshman, finishing second on the team with 0.91 blocks per set.

DeMeo and Lynch, along with fellow newcomer Chloe Klusman, will add depth this season.

“We’re expecting a big year from Mia,” Sunahara said. “She has the most experience and gained a lot of experience because of where we were as a team in the first few years. Now, I see her being a big part of our success as a hitter and blocker.

She’ll be the captain of the front row defense and will take the other kids under her wing and help them gain the experience and knowledge that she knows.”

Defensive Specialist/Libero Senior Gianna Gotterba enters her fourth season as WVU’s primary libero after

a spot. There’s not frontrunner right now, but whoever can set the best offense and be consistent will be in there. Erin is a little more physical from the front row, but that doesn’t mean Emma can’t do it. It will be a good battle, and that’s what we want.”

Coach SUNAHARA

surpassing 1,000 digs as a junior in 2016.

Gotterba led the team and ranked seventh in the league with 3.90 digs per set as a junior, earning several all-tournament team honors in the preseason. Fellow senior Taylor Cross finished third on the team in digs with 193, while Gabrielle Cuckovich also saw action as a freshman last season.

Freshmen Alexa Hasting, Lindsay Proctor and Ava Richards will join the trio of upperclassmen this season.

“Gianna is the anchor of our serve receive and defense,” Sunahara said. “She’s proven that she can play with the best of them. She’s made great improvements since the first time I saw her and started working with her. She’s done a nice job.

She has a good work ethic and a good touch on the ball. We expect her to have a big year.

Newcomer Emma Anderson may be a new face, but adds veteran talent. She comes to Morgantown after playing three seasons at South Alabama.

“Erin had a good year last year,” Sunahara said. “She got better over the spring and throughout the international competition.

She’s setting with more confidence and she’s worked hard at it.

“Emma brings collegiate experience. She’s already played three years at the Division I level. That definitely adds to what we’re trying to do. They’re both competing for

“The three freshmen – Lindsay, Ava and Alexa – will add to what we already have. I think our ball control was the biggest thing we needed from previous years, and I think we solidified that with adding to what we have.”

Setters Sophomore Erin Slinde took over as the team’s starting setter midway through the 2016 season, making great strides at the end of her rookie campaign. Slinde led WVU and ranked ninth in the Big 12 with 5.94 assists per set.

Review

A marked improvement, a list of honors and a trip to Europe are just some of the highlights from the 2016-17 WVU volleyball season.

In its second year under the guidance of head coach Reed Sunahara, the Mountaineers made great strides. A large underclassmen contingent teamed with seasoned veterans as the squad more than doubled its win total from the previous season.

earned the Big 12’s Rookie of the Week accolades on five occasions, and was named to the Big 12 All-Conference First Team and Big 12 All-Rookie Team at the conclusion of the season. In addition, Caffrey was named the AVCA Midwest Region Freshman of the Year, earning AVCA All-Midwest Region Team honors in the process.

NEWCOMERS MAKE AN IMPACT Five of the eight newcomers on the roster saw significant playimg time in their first season at West Virginia. Outside hitter Payton Caffrey led the Mountaineers and ranked among the Big 12’s best with 4.44 kills per set. Fellow hitter Katelyn Evans ranked third on the team with 1.95 kills per set, and right side Natania Levak was second with 0.87 blocks per set. Erin Slinde took over as the team’s starting setter, posting 5.94 assists per set, joining Caffrey on the Big 12 All-Freshman Team. Gabrielle Cuckovich also worked her way into the rotation at defensive specialist.

CAFFREY MAKES HER MARK Caffrey wasted no time in making her mark on the Mountaineers and earned several accolades for her efforts.

She set a freshman program record with 515 total kills, ranking second in single-season program history. Caffrey finished second in the Big 12 in both kills and points, and ranked third in service aces. The Chuluota, Florida, native

SWANEGAN EMERGES Middle blocker Mia Swanegan worked her way into the starting rotation in 2015 after transferring to West Virginia from TCU. However, Swanegan took her game to new heights as a junior in 2016. The Blue Springs, Missouri, native led the Big 12 with 1.34 blocks per set and totaled a team-best 149 blocks. Swangan’s season was highlighted by a career-best 13-block performance at K-State on October 24. She was twice named the Big 12 Defensive Player of the Week for her efforts.

Coach SUNAHARA

GOTTERBA GOES FOR 1,000 Gianna Gotterba hit a career milestone in Ames, Iowa, on Nov. 2. The junior libero led the Mountaineers against Iowa State with 12 digs, eclipsing 1,000 in her career on her fourth dug ball of the night. Gotterba finished with a team-best 452 digs on the season, just shy of the school’s single season top-10 list. She enters her final campaign with 1,095 digs, needing 23 more to move into the program’s all-time top 10.

SUNAHARA GETS THE “W” In his second year at the helm, Sunahara guided his team to several key wins throughout the season. The Mountaineers recorded a trio of sweeps, defeating Winthrop, Akron and Dartmouth to win the 2016 WVU Invitational at the Coliseum in September. Soon after, the Mountaineers claimed their first Big 12 win under Sunahara with a sweep at Texas Tech. West Virginia made it two in a row with a five-set thriller over rival TCU in Morgantown in late September. The team more than doubled its 2015 win total, posting 12 victories in 2016, and picked up three league wins. In addition, the Mountaineers took then-No. 4 Kansas to five sets and also won sets against No. 19 Santa Clara and No. 5 Texas.

MORE HONORS …

In addition to Caffrey, Swanegan and Slinde, several Mountaineers were honored for their work on the court and in the classroom. Taylor Cross, Hannah Shreve, MaTia Hughes and Morgan Montgomery joined Swanegan and Gotterba on the Big 12 All-Academic Volleyball Team. Additionally, Shreve earned CoSIDA Academic All-District Accolades. Caffrey was the WVU Invitational MVP and earned all-tournament team honors at the Penn State Classic and Cal Classic, while Gotterba earned mention on the Capital Classic and WVU Invitational All-Tournament Teams. The pair were also honored as WVU’s Offensive and Defensive MVPs, respectively, at the team’s annual postseason banquet. Slinde earned Most Improved, while Hannah Shreve took home the Mountaineer Award.

of Pazin, Croatia, took the team zip lining before showing everyone around her hometown and had the opportunity to play against her former club team and her younger sister.

The Mountaineers went 5-1 on the trip, picking up wins against Italian club Busto Arsizio, the Austrian National Team, Slovenian Junior National Team, ZOK Porec and ZOK Pazin.

SENIOR TRIO DEPARTS Three seniors wrapped up their WVU careers in November, as Shreve and Haley Roe completed four-year campaigns while Hughes was a two-year member of the program. Shreve graduates with her name in the WVU record books, ranking sixth all-time with 277 block assists and seventh all-time with 1.01 blocks per set. The trio was honored during the Mountaineers’ tilt with No. 4 Kansas on Nov. 16 at the WVU Coliseum.

TRIP OF A LIFETIME West Virginia capped the year with the trip of a lifetime - a 12-day trip to Europe in May. The Mountaineers journeyed through Italy, Slovenia and Croatia, exploring new cultures and, of course, playing some volleyball. The team biked through Milan, took a train up the mountain in Lake Como, rode an alpine slide down a mountain in Maribor (Slovenia) and went cliff jumping in Pula (Croatia). Levak, a native

Lifetime

TRIP OF A

The West Virginia University volleyball team embarked on the trip of a lifetime this past May, as the Mountaineers enjoyed a 12-day trip to Europe. In a trip made possible by the generosity of the program’s supporters, the team was able to compete and take in new cultures while abroad.

The Mountaineers played six matches throughout Italy, Slovenia and Croatia, returning to the U.S. with a 5-1 record. During that time the team went sightseeing in various cities, experienced new foods and took part in several recreational activities.

“I thought it was a fantastic trip for our players, staff and program,” coach Reed Sunahara said. “Thank you to Shane Lyons, our administration and all of our donors for making this happen. We experienced a lot over the course of our trip from a volleyball and a cultural standpoint. It was the opportunity of a lifetime.”

After departing Pittsburgh on Friday, May 12, the Mountaineers arrived in Milan on the morning of Saturday, May 13. The team immediately headed to practice at nearby Centro Pavisi, which is home to the Italian development team. WVU practiced and dined at the facility over the next three days.

Following their practice session, the team checked into its hotel before departing for Porta Sempione. The Mountaineers toured Porta Sempione via bicycle, stopping at the

VOLLE YBALL

Arco della Pace, Sforza Castle and Simplon Park before heading to Piazza del Duomo for more sightseeing and their first Italian dinner. The team chose to return on Sunday for more sightseeing.

On Monday, May 14, West Virginia made the short trip to Lake Como. After a short walk through town, the team took the Funicolare from Como to Brunate at the top of the mountains, where the players explored the churches and cafes. The team traveled to Busto Arsizio that evening to take on Unet Yamamay Busto Arsizio for its first European match. Led by Payton Caffrey’s 20 kill and Gianna Gotterba’s 11 digs, WVU topped Busto in five sets.

“Being at the lookout was one of the best sights I’ve ever seen,” defensive specialist Gabrielle Cuckovich said. “We spent a good amount of time there trying to capture the beauty, but the pictures don’t do it justice.”

The team departed Milan the following day, arriving in Venice in early afternoon. The players experienced Ferrovia, the Rialto Bridge and Piazza San Marco. In addition, the Mountaineers purchased souvenirs at the city’s many shops, opting for leather goods, Venetian masks and Murano glass jewelry as well as pastries and gelato. Several players opted for a gondola ride on the Grand Canal before taking the train back to Galzignano Terme.

On Wednesday, May 17, the Mountaineers chose a morning of relaxation by the pool at Hotel Splendid at Galzignano Terme Spa & Golf Resort. Upon checkout, the team departed for Slovenia, stopping first for a meal at the Autogrill before arriving in the capital of Ljubljana. The

players and staff were given a short time to tour the city, with some opting to take the tram up to Ljubljana Castle and others shopping and grabbing more gelato in town.

Later that evening, WVU arrived at Hotel Arena in Maribor.

The following day, the Mountaineers hit the court at the Dras Center for a short serve and pass. They then took the ski lift up the Pohorje Mountains for lunch at Trikotna Jasa. The trip down was a bit quicker, as one by one, the players made their way down on the Alpine Slide – tiny cars on a track that wound its way down the mountainside.

Many players chose to repeat the trip before heading back to Dras Center for a match against the Croatian National Team. Despite nine kills from Natania Levak, the team fell to Croatia, 3-1. After the match, the squad took a gondola back up the mountain for a traditional Slovenia meal.

that included kremsnite, a traditional crème cake. The squad then made the short trip to Skofja Loka, where it swept the Slovenian Junior National Team, 3-0.

“When we first arrived, my breath was taken away,” middle blocker Mia Swanegan said. “The view was so stunning. The water was a pretty teal blue. The breeze was perfect and at the opposite end of the lake was a church with a stone bell tower.”

On Friday, May 19, the team spent the morning exploring the town of Maribor. Players shopped, stopped for gelato and enjoyed coffee in the town while several staff members viewed the Zametovk – a 400-yeard-old vine that classifies as the oldest in the world. Later that afternoon, Caffrey (17 kills) and Gotterba (13 digs) again led WVU to a 3-1 win over the Austrian National Team. Post-match, the two teams met to view the sunset at Doppler Winery on the outskirts of town. The Mountaineers enjoyed dinner at the winery and learned the winemaking process from Lena, who is a third generation female winemaker at just 16 years old.

West Virginia departed Maribor on Saturday morning for Lake Bled, Slovenia’s answer to Italy’s Lake Como. Upon arriving in town, the Mountaineers walked down to the dock for a boat ride. As motors are not allowed on Lake Bled, the team was rowed across the water to Bled Island.

The Mountaineers trekked to the top of the island to view a pilgrimage church dedicated to the Assumption of Mary.

Returning to town, the team sat down for a pregame meal

The Mountaineers departed for Croatia on Sunday, arriving in the resort town of Pula after clearing the border. Players and staff took the opportunity to relax by the pool or at the beach for most of the afternoon before heading into town that evening for dinner. The team stopped at the Arch of Sergii, the Temple of Augustus and Pula Arena before dinner.

On Monday, the team headed to Kremanjak-Prementura, a peninsula on the cape of Istria for cliff jumping. The Mountaineers plunged into the Adriatic Sea from various heights, with many exploring a nearby cave. The team also stopped in for ping-pong, swings and slide rides at a pub nestled underneath the foliage. Later that afternoon, the team explored the seaside town of Rovinj, spending some kuna (Croatian currency) and exploring the market. Following the short detour, WVU headed to Porec to face Levak’s younger sister. The elder Levak and Caffrey combined for 22 kills as the Mountaineers claimed a 3-1 win over OK Porec. The squad dined at a local restaurant owned by a former professional volleyball player following the match.

For their final day in the country, the Mountaineers headed to Levak’s hometown of Pazin. Under the tutelage of Levak’s uncle and his co-workers, the team went zip lining over the Pazincica River, overlooking Pazinska jama (Pazin cave) and Pazin Castle. After lunch in the area, the team walked to town, passing many of Levak’s friends and family as well as her home on the way to a pregame snack of gelato. That evening, WVU faced ZOK Pazin, a club team

that Levak played with early in her career. Levak’s friends and family hosted the squad for an amazing Croatian dinner following the match. That night, the team traveled to Izula, Slovenia, to spend the night before departing for Marco Polo Aiport in Venice early Wednesday morning.

“The games were a great growth exercise for the team,” middle blocker Hanna Shreve said. “The matches introduced different styles of competition and tested the ability

50

to refocus on a match after a day filled with other activities - a skill that I think comes only through repeated experience/practice. I thought it was especially interesting to see the various environments that European teams are accustomed to being in for practice and competitions. Personally, I was amazed to see the Hotel Dras in Maribor, Slovenia.

It was a hotel with gyms and a weight room immediately connected to it! I can only imagine volleyball being popular enough to warrant such an establishment in America.”

DIRECTOR OF ATHLETICS

E. GORDON Gee, Dr. E. Gordon Gee is one of America’s most prominent higher education leaders, having served as president of some of the most prestigious public and private universities for more than three decades.

When he returned to lead West Virginia University in 2014 as the institution’s 24th president, it was a homecoming of sorts. He was first named WVU president in 1981 at age 36 – at the time, among the youngest persons to ever serve as a university president.

He led WVU until 1985 when he went on to presidencies at the University of Colorado (1985-90), Brown University (1998-2000) and Vanderbilt University (2001-07). He served as president of The Ohio State University from 1990-97 and again from 2007-13.

On his return to the Morgantown campus, he said, “This is not a job to me; it is a calling.” His leadership style bears that out as he works tirelessly to advance the University’s land-grant mission and open doors to the American dream.

In his latest address to the University community, he noted that for 150 years, the institution has been a polar star guiding West Virginians toward a brighter tomorrow. He said, “That is why, in this milestone year, we recommit our University to living the values that drive our work. Serving our students and our state is not just our duty — it is our passion.”

Gee has built a special relationship with the students as well as the state’s citizens, making it a point to visit students where they live, learn and socialize -- and visiting all 55 West Virginia counties during his inaugural year -- and at least half in subsequent years.

Born in Vernal, Utah, Gee graduated from the University of Utah with an honors degree in history and earned his J.D. and Ed.D. degrees from Columbia University. He clerked under Chief Justice David T. Lewis of the U.S. 10th Circuit Court of Appeals before being named a judicial fellow and staff assistant to the U.S. Supreme Court. In this role, he worked for Chief Justice Warren Burger on administrative and legal problems of the Court and federal judiciary. Gee returned to Utah as an associate professor and associate dean in the J. Reuben Clark Law School at Brigham Young University, and was granted full professorship in 1978.

One year later, he became dean of the WVU College of Law, and, in 1981, was named WVU’s 19th president.

Gee has served on several education-governance organizations and committees, including the Big 12 Conference Council of Presidents, the Business Higher Education Forum and the American Association of Universities. He was chair of the American Council on Education’s Commission on Higher Education Attainment and served as co-chair of the Association of Public and Land-Grant Universities’ Energy Advisory Committee. In 2009, King Abdulaziz University in Saudi Arabia invited him to join its international advisory board. In 2009, Time magazine named him one of the top 10 university presidents in the United States.

Gee is serving as chair of the Big 12 Board of Directors Executive Committee for the 2017-18 year. Active in many national professional and service organizations, he is on the executive committee of the National 4-H Council Board of Trustees and serves on the board of directors of the American Council on Education, the nation’s largest higher education organization, as well as on the board of trustees of the Royal University for Women in Bahrain, with which WVU has a long-standing academic partnership. A recipient of the Distinguished Eagle Scout Award, he is an executive board member of Boy Scouts of America. He has also served on the boards for the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum and Limited Brands.

J.D, ED.D

In 2011, Gee began serving as secretary on the Board of Directors of Ohio’s economic development program, JobsOhio. In 2011-12, Governor John Kasich asked him to chair the Ohio Higher Education Capital Funding Collaborative and the Ohio Higher Education Funding Commission. In December 2012, he began serving on the Columbus Education Commission.

Gee has received many honorary degrees, awards, fellowships and recognitions. He is a fellow of the prestigious American Association for the Advancement of Science, the world’s largest science organization.

In 1994, Gee received the Distinguished Alumnus Award from the University of Utah, as well as from Teachers College of Columbia University. In 2013, he received the ACE Council of Fellows/Fidelity Investments Mentor Award and the Outstanding Academic Leader of the Year Award on behalf of Historically Black Colleges and Universities.

He is the co-author of 11 books, including Law, Policy and Higher Education, published in 2012. He has also authored many papers and articles on law and education.

In the summer of 2016, Gee announced his engagement to Laurie Erickson, leader of the Erickson Foundation. Gee’s daughter, Rebekah, is Secretary of the Louisiana Department of Health. In addition to that role, she is a practicing gynecologist and Gratis Faculty at the Louisiana State University School of Medicine and Louisiana State University Health Sciences Center in New Orleans. Dr. Rebekah Gee is married to David Patrón and they have five children.

DIRECTOR OF ATHLETICS

SHANE Lyons

The 2017-18 season is Shane Lyons’ third full year as director of athletics at West Virginia University. If the next year is anything like the previous two, the Mountaineer athletics story will be full of positive results and continued success.

In year two, Lyons put the finishing touches, to rave reviews, on $23 million in renovations to the WVU Coliseum, while $50 million in renovations and fan enhancements to Milan Puskar Stadium finished in August 2017.

Lyons is always on the go, focusing his energy daily on the betterment of more than 500 student-athletes. His open lines of communications have made him a popular role model for WVU athletes, and his honest, fair and caring approach has energized an athletic department that turned in record results in 2017.

Under Lyons’ leadership, 2017 was one of the best in WVU history. Six teams were nationally ranked, football turned in a 10-win season, women’s soccer played for the national championship and had the Hermann Trophy winner, men’s basketball reached the Sweet 16, women’s basketball won the Big 12 championship and rifle won its 19th national championship. Overall, the Mountaineers registered in 24 All-Americans, 104 all-conference performers, 20 academic award winners, 121 academic all-conference selections, 10 Olympians, one Olympic gold medalist and two silver medalists.

Overseeing 18 varsity sports, a self-sustaining department budget of more than $90 million and more than 200 employees, Lyons’ tireless efforts in the coming year will be geared toward getting started on a new $45 million aquatic and track center in Morgantown, and a continued focus, on the growth and cultivation of the more than $23 million in fundraising efforts brought in by the Mountaineer Athletic Club. He will also direct phase two of the Coliseum renovations, which will bring the building up to ADA seating code, and for the first-time ever, Milan Puskar Stadium will have two video boards to improve in fan entertainment and information.

While some outside observers may think that he is a behind-the-scenes guy, the people who count will tell you that Lyons is a results-oriented leader who has his finger on the pulse and is a positive influence on the entire department.

His work with WVU President E. Gordon Gee’s senior leadership team, as well as the Big 12 Conference and other national committees has brought additional respect and positive exposure to his department and the University. He currently serves on the Big 12 Administration Committee, Finance and Budget Committee and the Game Management and Officiating Subcommittee. Also in 2017-18, Lyons will chair the overall athletic directors committee for the Big 12.

Lyons came to West Virginia after spending three years as the deputy director of athletics and chief operating officer at Alabama where he worked closely on day-to-day strategic leadership and direction of the Crimson Tide Athletic program.

During his time at Alabama, his responsibilities included oversight of a $120 million budget, management of the day-to-day operations of the department and oversight of the Crimson Tide’s 21 sports teams. In addition, he played a pivotal role in a historic renegotiation of Alabama’s multimedia rights agreement that started in 2014 and was involved in several significant capital projects totaling more than $85 million.

The Crimson Tide won seven national titles in five different sports during his time there – two in football, two in men’s golf, one in women’s golf, one in gymnastics and one in softball. He also played a critical role in the hiring of four Alabama head coaches.

Prior to joining the Alabama staff in November 2011, Lyons spent 10 years as an associate commissioner at the Atlantic Coast Conference. At the ACC, Lyons focused on conference-wide compliance and academic initiatives, providing direct assistance to the conference’s presidents, chancellors and athletics directors in matters dealing with NCAA regulatory matters.

In addition, he served as the ACC’s human resource manager and was responsible for the administration, negotiation and mediation of the employee benefits program and managing the conference’s organizational policies and procedures. He was part of the senior administrative team for ACC events,

including the football championship game, the men’s basketball tournament and men’s and women’s NCAA basketball events.

Prior to working at the ACC, Lyons served as associate athletics director for compliance at Big 12 member Texas Tech from 1998 to 2001. During that time, Lyons assumed responsibility for the leadership, administration and implementation of a comprehensive NCAA compliance program with emphasis toward rules education and extensive monitoring systems. He also served as oversight administrator for several of the Red Raiders’ athletic teams and had financial and operational supervision of the strength and conditioning, nutritional and sports medicine units.

Before joining Texas Tech, Lyons worked at the NCAA for almost 10 years as a senior membership services representative, where he was responsible for the oversight and coordination of the 25 membership service representatives.

Lyons began his career in college athletics in July 1988 as assistant commissioner of the Big South Conference. With the Big South, he was in charge of conference-wide compliance and championships.

A native of Parkersburg, West Virginia, and a graduate of Parkersburg High, Lyons was a standout basketball player for the Big Reds. He earned bachelor’s and master’s degrees in sport management from WVU in 1987 and 1988, respectively.

Lyons, the University’s 12th athletic director, and his wife, Emily, a graduate of the University of Wisconsin-Madison, have two children: Cameron and Brooke.
